Company Summary

We are a central platform where users can post, find, and manage short-term finance, strategy and marketing projects without paying the high overhead costs that large consulting firms and temp agencies charge. SkillBridge leverages the mindset change of many knowledge workers who are prioritizing flexibility over security to give smaller organizations access to this high end talent. Clients range from small BUs of large companies to startups.
